Laos a. Moscow has now formally asked London to join in sum-moning another 14-nation con-ference at Geneva in June. c. Pakistan's Bhutto, who is in London, felt obliged to add his two rupees' worth by pro-claiming to a press conference that no political settlement is possible in Southeast Asia with-out Chinese Communist participa-tion. He said there was a complete vacuum in Laos and Vietnam. d. There was no significant military action yesterday on the Plaine des Jarres. Both sides are consolidating. e. Meo leader Vang Pao has credited the recent T-28 strikes south of the Plaine with heading off a Communist assault on his mountain strongpoint at Pa Dong. 50X6 50X1 50X1 For The President Only - Top Secret Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/23 : CIA-RDP79T00936A002600330001-2 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/23 : CIA-RDP79T00936A002600330001-2 50X1 2, North Vietnam - Laos 3. Communist China a. Communist forces in Laos getting supplies by air from North Vietnam. are b. Aerial photography taken on 24 April showed one LI-2 transport on the ground at an air-field in Pathet Lao territory We think it was a Vietnamese plane. c. Communications patterns on recent flights out of Hanoi imply that many transports were in the air longer than required to reach their destinations in North Vietnam, quite long enough to have flown into Laos and back. d. This fits in with charges recently made by a neutralist officer that the North Vietnamese were airdropping supplies to Pathet Lao forces north of Vang Vieng, who have been cut off from overland support since the spring of 1962. a. The Chinese are pushing road and rail projects which will give them much easier access to their frontiers with Laos and Burma.

Congo b. Peiping announced yester-day that a bridge over the Mekong at Cheli, just across the Burma border in Yunnan, will Soon be finished, Aerial photography con-firms that work on the Cheli bridge, which will be able to carry heavy military traffic, was well advanced in late March. c. Final work on the rail line which will link Kunming with the main Chinese network to the north is also getting high priority. When it is finished, the Chinese will no longer have to use the rickety rail route through North Vietnam to reach Kunming. d. The Chinese have already built large barracks installations in this area which can house many more troops than are now gar-risoned there. a. The two Congos seem more and more preoccupied with plot-ting each other's downfall. b. Leopoldville, irate over recent acts of sabotage it blames on exiles based in Brazzaville trying to overthrow Adoula, is of a mind to strike back.

USSR c. Leopoldville will prob-ably have to rely on sabotage, however, since it is all its army can do to co se with the rebels at home. d. Brazzaville will be quick to pin the blame on Adoula for whatever happens there, and then on the US as ultimately respons-ible for Leopoldville's actions. The already strong leftist ele-ments in the Brazzaville regime will profit most from any trouble. 50X1 50X1 For The President Only - Top Secret Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/23 : CIA-RDP79T00936A002600330001-2 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/23 : CIA-RDP79T00936A002600330001-2 For The President Only - Top Secret Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/23 : CIA-RDP79T00936A002600330001-2 50X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/23 : CIA-RDP79T00936A002600330001-2 NOTES A British Guiana Expanding racial violence has now led the British governor to declare a state of emergency. In response to his re-quest for additional British troops, London has dispatched one company and put additional units on alert. B. Maphilindo Special emissary Lopez claimed in Kuala Lumpur this morning that agreement had been reached on a summit meeting in Tokyo during the first week of June. The Tunku has? told his parliament that--according to Lopez--Sukarno has accepted "most of" Malaysia's terms for the meeting. Thus the possibilities for slips are as great as ever. C. Italy - Communist China Nenni's Socialists are sending their top foreign affairs expert to Peiping next week for an "official ex-ploratory" visit. The main purpose seems to be to blunt criticism from the Communists and dissident Socialists of Nenni's acquie-scence in the government's decision against recognition of China. The government is playing the mission as a private Socialist Party venture, but it will nonetheless give ammunition to the enemies of the "opening to the left." D. Cuba The military alert seems to have been relaxed a bit, although it remains in effect. In a fire-eating speech last night, Raul Castro for the first time told the Cuban public about it.

USSR-Egypt Khrushchev apparently plans to top off his goodwill visit to Egypt with a $220 million credit for Nasir's development plan. The size of the loan, which will cover equipment and services in the heavy industry field, is about what we thought would come from the aid talks carried on while Khrushchev toured. F. USSR G. France H. South Korea The political situation remains basically unstable despite a lull in the power struggle within the regime since 11 May when Chong Il-kwon's new cabinet was installed. Students again demonstrated against normaliz-ing relations with Japan on Wednesday, but failed to arouse much popular support. A subsequent attempt by paratroops to interfere with court proceedings against the demonstra-tors is blowing up into another crisis.
